About Your Guide

Joe W.

Independent Guide

Captain Joe grew up in the small town of Hernando, Mississippi, and played football for the Ole Miss Rebels from 2003 to 2005.

He started bowfishing when he was 15 years old and has been passionate about it ever since. He began in local ditches and creeks until he had the opportunity to go bowfishing on a fan boat with a friend for the first time. That night, bowfishing took on a whole new meaning for him. He had never seen or shot at as many fish as he did that night. Inspired by this experience, he decided to invest in his own boat. After purchasing his boat, he dedicated himself to fishing and learning about as many lakes as possible, discovering numerous productive spots along the way.

Throughout his bowfishing journey, he has always enjoyed teaching others about the sport of shooting fish with a bow and arrow. Nothing beats the experience of being there with someone, helping them shoot their first fish, or sharing the frustration of near misses. The rush he feels when he or someone else hits a fish with an arrow is one of the greatest feelings in the world!

First Time Booking with Us?

Captain Experiences is home to 1,600+ quality, vetted fishing and hunting guides across the US and beyond. Our mission is to Unlock the Outdoors by making it quick and easy to book the trip of a lifetime every time with our Damn Good Guides.

We vet our guides and only partner with the best of the best. Our guides do their very best to keep you safe, show you a great time, and send you home with a memorable experience shared with family and friends.

Once you've paid your deposit at checkout, we'll send you a QR Code boarding pass. Just show your guide your boarding pass on the day of the trip, they'll scan it, the remaining balance will transfer automatically, and you'll be all set to get out there. Just make sure you bring a cash tip for the guide!

In the event of inclement weather, our guides will check the conditions and make the final call on whether its safe to go on the trip. If they decide the trip needs to be postponed, we'll work closely with you to reschedule or provide a credit for the full deposit, which can be applied to any of our trips in the US and beyond.

Each trip's price is determined by the guide and reflects all associated costs. A significant factor in pricing is often the type of boat and the corresponding fuel expenses. Additional costs may include leases, marina or slip fees, bait, and the expenses involved in providing and maintaining the necessary gear for your trip.

After booking your trip, we'll connect you directly with your guide to discuss additional details. In the meantime, our team is here to answer any questions via email, text, or phone.
